LTTTC Two Week Wait 2012 #3

[Bee27]

Hello my TWW friends

ARGH I had forgotten how hard this part was last time i had DS i worked in U/S so i could see things happening but im a teacher now so no looking in my tummy.

Please dont lose hope N2L it is still to early to get a BFP it takes 4-5 days after implantation for hCG levels to raise (i used to work at the IVF clinic). I have definately had cramping and light spotting over the weekend but better today im 4dp5dt...Im going to hold of POAS until thursday now (got BFN today which isnt suprising!!) and praying to see something by Saturday as I'm taking my mum and dad to see Mary Poppins and its my dads final round of chemo after 3 months of treatment and i want to give them something to look forward to.

My blood test is 06.06.12 hoping it's kind to me and lots of us in here that are going a little POAS crazy!!
By the way anyone else doing 3 pessaries a day?...how do you find time to lay down for 30 minutes after insertion? For now im doing one after work about now 6pm, then another before bed at 11pm and I wake up at 4am to do another before school. Any feedback gratefully received.

Hang in there ladies

Thanks Bee. I just figured I am 8dpo today and the test I used is sensitive to 10iui (which is better than FRERs). I have heard of lots of women getting a BFP at this point... I just knew I shouldn't have got my hopes up I am blaming those bloody cramps....

I really hope you other girls have better luck

Re the pessaries, I am only doing one. I do it at night in bed.

I have read of others doing it early in the morning (half hour before they get up), when they get home from work, then in bed just before sleep. Hope this helps!

N2L too early for you yet, come one super embies stick dammmmm it!

Oh wow my clinic didn't mention anything about laying down or anything afterwards? I had to have a blood test at 2dp5dt to ensure my levels were high enough to support a pregnancy and it was ok - but I am doing crinone so maybe they're all different.

How many days past transfer is it safe to get an accurate home test reading?

[nothing2lose]

Susan, I was told to lie down after crinone too. It's just to ensure it has enough time to dissolve/absorb without running out.

Re hpts - it depends on the sensitivity. I reckon for the sensitive ones 8days past ovulation (so 5dp3dt or 3dp5dt) is pretty accurate.

Never... repeat after me "I will step away from anything it is normally acceptable to pee on...."

You're such a liar Joeve

Just sneaking in to wish everyone good luck and sending loads of sticky vibes.
susan - my dr told me not to lay down after crinone, but to get moving for better absorption.
Sneaking out.

welcome Vic sticky vibes to you babe x
Hang in there N2L x
Everyone else hope you having a great day and not going to bloody crazy!
AFM I have promised myself no POAS this time i cant handle it just sucks plus im on pregynl x 3 shots different days and had false positives before.
No real cramping or any side affects just vague as and maybe a little hot but had all this before and nothing so who knows.
Im going ok been keeping busy and reallly sick of getting the news bfn so just trying to forget about it and seems to be working suprisingly not expecting much and definately not getting my hopes up, but its week one, week 2 maybe a different story.

Hi Bee, I found the pessaries so gross and inconvenient last time I am using them rectally this time- clinic told me it was ok. You don't have to worry about lying down and much less messy. Hardly noticing them.
